Happenings

Well, here we are another day gone by. This past weekend the kids and I had the opportunity to follow Randy to St. George and Richfield where he did a few concerts. We drove down to St. George Friday morning and by the evening the kids did not want to sit anymore so we didn't make it through the concert. (The old people there were very rude, to top it off). I was so frustrated and upset that we went back to the hotel and went to bed. I did however get to see one of my good friends from college that I haven't seen for about two years. That was the highlight of the trip for me.

Saturday was Regan's 5th birthday and the band did a parade which Regan told everyone was "her birthday parade." It was very cute. (Side note: Randy makes one HOT drum major!!) Then it was on the road again to Richfield. The hotel in Richfield had an indoor pool so the kids and I went swimming before the concert to get some energy out. They actually did very well during the concert and I was very happy with them, so we went swimming again afterwards so that they would sleep. We got to sleep in a little bit on Sunday before coming home. All in all it was a good trip.

On a sadder note, my sister has moved to Washington :( I don't know what I'm going to do without her. My mom and dad were able to go up with them to help them get unpacked and settled in. That is why I decided to go to St. George for the weekend. I figured that if half my family wasn't going to be here to celebrate Regan's birthday, that we'd run away for the weekend too. Things seem to be going well for them up there and I wish them the best of luck!

I agree that Randy makes a "hot" drum major, oh I am sorry I am too old to be look at him. I Love you guys so much.
